How to Choose an Ionizer
Overhead ionizers, like the Aerostat Guardian Overhead Ionizer (4004063), are generally the most expensive; however, they save desk space by being hung from above and provide continual ionization over an area. Desktop ionizers, like the Ionizer Benchtop Air Blower (963), are generally the least expensive and still provide continual ionization over an area; however they take away from the desktop space by sitting on the work surface.

HERO MOTHER is an international exhibition of 30 women artists from 20 countries. It is part of MOMENTUM's program for 2016, consisting of a series of events, residencies and exhibitions called BEYOND BALAGAN, which inquires into contemporary art and its relation to life. HERO MOTHER follows on from the major exhibition BALAGAN!!! Contemporary Art from the Former Soviet Union and Other Mythical Places curated by David Elliott, which was held in three venues in Berlin from 14 November till 23 December 2015. "Balagan" is a popular and much used exclamation in contemporary Russia and the places Russian culture has spread to, that describes, with celebratory gusto, a farce, a mess, the most unholy of cock-ups, and at the same time the most joyful of celebrations, the most unrestrained debauchery, the 'functional dysfunctional'.
The title of the exhibition HERO MOTHER is derived from Soviet, or rather Stalinist practice. The honorary title "Hero Mother" and the medal bestowed with it, established on 8 July 1944 by Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet, was awarded to Soviet women who raised at least ten living children. Before it was abolished in 1991, upon the dissolution of the Soviet Union, more than 430,000 women had received this state honor. In 2008, the Russian Federation replaced this award with the "Order of Parental Glory", downscaling the honor to celebrate the smaller accomplishment of only seven children. This award is also still given to mothers in some post-communist states, such as Belarus or Kazakhstan. What was originally conceived as an incentive to repopulate a country ravaged by war and to encourage women in their patriotic duty to their motherland, today sounds like an absurd punch-line of a Soviet joke.
Or rather not? What has changed for women since the communist era? Did women who in state socialism used to be "working mothers" become today something "else"? Have they become women-citizens? How are we to define heroism in a democratic setting? Could we say it is social disobedience and resistance? Having in mind the new "familiarism" ideologies and the ideal of stay-at-home mothers, which were promoted by the post-communist governments already in the early 1990s, and which are today aggressively endorsed by nationalist parties all over Eastern Europe (and not only there), the figure of the 'Mother' or the 'Mother of the Nation' occupies the central role. It is indicative that as soon as the Eastern European democratic parliaments had been established around 1990, the very first law most of them tried to pass was the law controlling women's bodies, namely, the anti-abortion bill. (The "nationalization of women's bodies" succeed only in Poland where abortion became illegal in 1992). Yet the conservative agenda which exhumes such an exaggeration of 'family values' at the cost of personal freedoms to choose alternative lifestyles is only one of many indications of a turning back of the clock to a time before the hard-won victories of feminism and gay rights struggled across Europe.
HERO MOTHER focuses on the role of gender, citizenship, nationalism, migration and personal freedom, as well as the relation between the artists and institutions, such as the state structures. Some of the artists in this exhibition who address serious social issues use the old feminist strategy based on the Bachtenian "power of laughter" showing their civil disobedience and taking the role of "unruly" citizens, while others treat these topics with seriousness and even melancholy. Some works deal with personal, familial and collective women's memories and female heritage, which are usually lost in the course of the grand narrative of (national) history. Other artists, dealing with the issue of (their own) motherhood, do not deny the condition of motherhood per se; they question the manners in which "being-mother" becomes manipulated by threatening nationalist ideologies – ideologies which, in linking motherhood and nation, are today being exhumed by controlling power.
HERO MOTHER looks at the ramifications of traditionalist political forces, as they are unleashed upon women, the queer community and other minorities at a time of increasingly resurgent conservative values. The limitless possibilities of contemporary art, along with its capacity to turn the world on its head through parody and laughter, have invested it with a socio-political edge, unrecognized since the historical avant-garde, that has become part of a growing worldwide movement for non-violent action. This exhibition and discursive program will look beyond feminist and queer critiques to address how contemporary art can act as a mirror to a world turned on its head, and specifically how humor, farce, and parody can form the strongest tools of social engagement and change.
The artists invited to take part in MOMENTUM's exhibition HERO MOTHER are contemporary women who are either born in, or are based in, the states that used to (or still) practice state socialism. It will present the work of women artists from places with communist legacies – including Germany – whose work addresses and defies, through a variety of media, the frighteningly regressive political agendas in many Eastern European countries today, and out this in the context of broader developments worldwide.
Because MOMENTUM's focus is time-based art, the works shown in this exhibition will integrate time into their form and their content, including – but not limited to – video, performance, installation, public art, situationist action, interactive works and social engagement, sound, photography, text, and web-based work. This exhibition accordingly invokes time-based art practices to explore the legacies of cultural histories that have constantly changed over time. As Berlin's only platform focusing exclusively on time- based art, MOMENTUM focuses on historical time through the lens of technologies that break down moments into images, as well as through the personal experiences of artists whose varied cultural perspectives re-frame different historical moments.

Faboulos location with good facilities. The staff were friendly, breakfast was good.
perfect location view from balcony
lack of gym equipment
The hotel is very nice and lovely views. It has a wine list fantastic bourdeux at honest prices.
The mattresses of the beds are very bad
The hotel staff was excellent -- very friendly and accommodating.
The hotel rooms were large but the decor was vintage 1960s with mismatched wallpaper and furniture and bathrooms in desperate need of renovation. They did not correspond to the reviews on your website.
internet services is expensive and make no sense to pay that much for it
Please write at least 15 words
The service and the food were excellent.
Food was excellent in the Stublie. Staff were very helpful. Room had a beautiful view
Main resturant and bar were a bit basic
Very friendly, helpful staff. Owners were on site. Excellent breakfast, homemade jam
Mold around soap dish and other bathtub places. Staff rectified the problem that day.
Beautiful view, quaint town, wonderful breakfast, comfortable rooms with lovely antiques.
Did not know you couldn't drive to Wengen. Had to take a train up & back from Lauterbrunnen. In the end this was not a hassle & added to the charm of our trip.
Location of the hotel is extremely fantastic. the hotel staff are very helpful.
Place was awesome. Town is small so it's easy to get around, it's very quiet and this is even further off the Main Street. Only had breakfast: meats/cheeses, lots of bread, boiled eggs, yogurt. Staff was ultra cool, very good understanding of the town and how things work around there.
Nothing intrinsically their fault. Construction was happening across the street which was noisy. They lock the doors at night, so remember your key if you return late. There is a decently steep hill to get there, so bare that in mind if mobility is a requirement.
Room was clean, warm and inviting with great views (southern room facing mountains). Staff were very helpful.
The hotel is a very attractive building combining traditional chalet-style architecture on the outside with a modern interior featuring beautiful woodwork, subtle, restful and harmonious colours, excellent layouts in both public and private rooms, and interesting art throughout. Christian Aumont, the general manager, is a wonderful host - friendly, attentive, helpful and discrete. The food and wine were excellent.
The atmosphere was wonderful. You felt like you were in someone's home and the owners certainly treated everyone that way. The room was wonderful, the views amazing, and the service spectacular. I traveled with my dog and she was welcomed just as nicely. We will absolutely return.
Staff was wonderful, great food.
We adored the mountain view. It was truly spectacular. You felt like you could reach out and touch them. The staff were so helpful, you felt as if they gave you their personal attention at all times.
Great views along the Lauterbrunnen Valley. Staff were very efficient.
It was not very central to facilities or station. The town is car free and they charged to transport luggage to the station. No TV.
The bathroom was SO clean. I have never stayed in a hostel that had facilities that were maintained like this was.
It's very very basic but friendly and a real batgain when you compare to everywhere else. Location good - short walk to town and easy to get to other places in the region
Shared toilets were in different block

Annual festival honors music legacy of Carl Sandburg
Published: Sunday, May 25, 2014 at 3:15 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, May 22, 2014 at 8:14 p.m.
Folk musicians from across the region will converge Monday at Connemara for a day of toe-tapping fun and music as Carl Sandburg Home National Historic Site hosts the 28th annual Carl Sandburg Folk Music Festival.
Want to go?
What: 28th annual Carl Sandburg
Folk Music Festival
Where: Carl Sandburg Home
National Historic Site, Little River
Road, Flat Rock
When: 11 a.m.-4 p.m. Monday
Admission: Free
Info: Call 693-4178 or visit www.
This free festival offers music performances from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Memorial Day. Just as Carl Sandburg's family enjoyed sitting on the porch while he played a guitar and sang for them, visitors can experience folk music adjacent to the historic home.
Performers will include The Gypsy Swingers, Nitrograss, Ruby Mayfield and Friends, Jon Shain, King Bees, and Steve and Jean Smith.
The folk festival honors Sandburg and his preservation of traditional folk music as found in his collection "The American Songbag."
The festival's performers each will demonstrate the tradition of performing live music to tell stories while capturing the heritage of America through song.
For example, Charles Wood of Nitrograss is a two-time national banjo champion and has appeared on the David Letterman show performing with Steve Martin and Earl Scruggs.
Meanwhile, The King Bees, led by Rob Baskerville and Penny "Queen Bee" Zamagni, have played with many blues titans, including Bo Diddley, Jerry McCain and Chicago Bob Nelson.
Sandburg began playing the guitar in the early 1900s to enhance his lectures, and he performed during the era of Pete Seeger and Woody Guthrie. Sandburg was also a mentor for folk singer Burl Ives.
Seating is available at the amphitheater, or visitors may bring their own chairs and rest under the hemlocks while enjoying a day of folk fun.
Snacks will be available for sale in the bookstore, and tours of the Sandburg home will be available throughout the day for a fee.
The festival began in 1987 and is supported by the National Park Service, Friends of Carl Sandburg at Connemara, Eastern National and a grant from the North Carolina Arts Council administered by the Arts Council of Henderson County.
For more information, call 693-4178 or visit www.nps.gov/carl.

CARSON, Calif. -- Crenshaw tailback DeAnthony Thomas' first carry in Saturday's CIF Open Division state championship game went for 43 yards and a touchdown.
On the Cougars' next possession, Thomas took a fourth-down pitch around the end for a 10-yard score to give Crenshaw a 14-0 lead over Northern California power De La Salle.
But that would be it from the highly touted L.A. city prospect known to many as "Black Mamba," and the Spartans took advantage, using talented tailback Terron Ward to wear down the Cougars' defense.
Ward rushed for 165 yards and three touchdowns on 22 carries, powering De La Salle to a 28-14 comeback victory in front of 16,910 people at the Home Depot Center. It was the first loss on the season for Crenshaw, which reeled off 14 consecutive wins in reaching the bowl game.
"We underestimated them," Crenshaw senior tailback Geoffrey Norwood said. "We came out strong, and when we were up 14-0 it was, 'All right, we got this, they're not as tough as we thought.'
"But then we let up, and they came out and proved us wrong."
De La Salle (13-2) has appeared in all four state bowls since the inaugural in 2006. It was the first appearance for Crenshaw (14-1), and the school was garnering quite a bit of publicity in recent weeks due in large part to Thomas, who is being eyed by recruiters at USC, UCLA and a host of other schools across the nation.
But the 5-foot-9, 160-pound dynamo sprained his left ankle playing cornerback late in the first half and was limited for the rest of the game. He finished with 73 yards on just six carries. "The boy got wheels," Ward said. "He's a real speedster."
Ward, sporting No. 28 and listed at 5-7 and 170, continued to pound on the Cougars' defense until the fourth quarter. He scored both of the Spartans' touchdowns in the second half -- one on a 26-yard burst that got the crowd roaring in the third quarter.
"Basically, it was our No. 16 versus their No. 28," said Thomas, who wears No. 16. "And I guess he fought harder than me."
Crenshaw quarterback Marquis Thompson completed 18 of 30 passes for 178 yards and two interceptions. Cougars receivers Gregory Ducre and Geno Hall caught six passes each for a total of 125 yards.
Thompson's counterpart, Spartan quarterback Bart Houston, threw only 10 times for 86 yards, and backup tailback Ryan Anderson added 90 yards on 14 carries and a key interception on defense.
Norwood replaced Thomas in the second half, rushing for 40 yards on 15 carries. But he couldn't get into the end zone for Crenshaw.
The backbreaker for the Cougars came when Ward punched into the end zone on a 4-yard sweep to make it a two-touchdown game with three minutes remaining.
"I knew we were gonna have our hands full with Crenshaw this week, and we did," said De La Salle coach Bob Ladouceur, who had his record 151-game winning streak snapped earlier this decade. "They had great athletes who were tough-nosed and they played good defense."
The effort was not lost on Crenshaw coach Robert Garrett, who expressed optimism about the team's chances of returning to a bowl game in 2010. Both Thomas and Thompson have a year remaining, although Ducre and Hall are seniors.
"We got beat by a great team," Garrett said. "Although we lost on the scoreboard, we're winners in our heart.
"And we'll work hard to get here next year."
Anaheim Servite 33, Rocklin 30: Anaheim Servite (14-1) used a last-second field goal by Nicholas Echeverry to battle past Rocklin in the Division II championship game.
The Friars had led 30-10 earlier in the game before Rocklin (14-1) used a furious run to create an exciting finale at the Home Depot Center.
Servite senior quarterback Cody Fajardo rushed for 82 yards and a touchdown on 19 carries. He also completed 12 of 21 pass attempts for 182 yards and a touchdown.
With Rocklin quarterback Jimmy Laughrea out with a broken arm, tailback Jackson Cummings had 29 carries for 159 yards and two touchdowns, including a 1-yard score that tied the game with nine minutes remaining.
Consecutive turnovers -- one from each side -- gave Servite the ball at the Rocklin 27-yard line with less than two minutes remaining.
A well-executed drive later, and Echeverry kicked the 23-yarder that gave the Friars the victory.
Servite is ranked as high as second nationally by some recruiting services.

I'm a mechanical engineering student, and I'm building a physical simulation using PyODE.
instead of running everything from one file, I wanted to organize stuff in modules so I had:
- main.py
- callback.py
- helper.py
I ran into problems when I realized that helper.py needed to reference variables from main, but main was the one importing helper!
so my solution was to create a 4th file, which houses variables and imports only external modules (such as time and random).
so I now have:
- main.py
- callback.py
- helper.py
- parameters.py
and all scripts have:
import parameters and use:
parameters.foo or
Is this an acceptable practice or is this a sure fire way to make python programmers puke? :)
Please let me know if this makes sense, or if there is a more sensible way of doing it!
Thanks, -Leav

An historical survey of the memory industry is given, and the progress of the ferrite core memory since it was first introduced is examined. It is shown that the computer industry could not have developed without a reliable and relatively cheap storage element capable of being produced in great quantity. The core memory satisfied this requirement but appeared to be vulnerable to competition by technologies more suited to mass production. The reasons why core memories have not been supplanted are examined, and a forecast for the next ten years is presented. The prediction is that core memories will retain the largest share of dollar-volume in on-line memory industry for the duration of this period.

@MISC{Lefevre_improvinggenericity, author = {Fabrice Lefevre and Jean-luc Gauvain and Lori Lamel}, title = {Improving Genericity for Task-Independent Speech Recognition}, year = {}}
Although there have been regular improvements in speech recognition technology over the past decade, speech recognition is far from being a solved problem. Recognition systems are usually tuned to a particular task and porting the system to a new task (or language) is both time-consuming and expensive. In this paper, issues in speech recognizer portability are addressed through the development of generic core speech recognition technology. First, the genericity of wide domain models is assessed by evaluating performance on several tasks. Then, the use of transparent methods for adapting generic models to a specific task is explored. Finally, further techniques are evaluated aiming at enhancing the genericity of the wide domain models. We show that unsupervised acoustic model adaptation and multi-source training can reduce the performance gap between task-independent and taskdependent acoustic models, and for some tasks even out-perform task-dependent acoustic models.

and i've read that it's a sony. same cam in the experia line. and i'm hearing from some that they like the cam in the nok n8 better. i believe based on chipworks teardown the nok 8 has toshiba inside and it's a fsi, not bsi, cam. god, i love how much more knowledgeable i am than you guys. lol i've read lots of reports, and none mention ovt. i mentioned in earlier posts that the ovt bulls think that the same ovt cam from htc evo is in the 4s. people tell me that it's the 8830. i say, not if it's in the evo. i have teardown info and the 8830 is not in evo. the ovt cam that's in it is the 8812 and it has less sensitivity than the iphone4 cam from ovt. and apple says its new cam has higher sensitivity than that 5mp. based on ovt's own sensitivity numbers, the sensitivity of the 8812 is less than the 5642 (cam from iphone 4). but do your own research. nice this pos is up $4 from the bottom, but to bad it's down $20 from the top.
Here's a pretty clearcut post with an informed opinion that the sensor is Omnivision's:
Whatever dude.
that's a plant. a joke. and it's far from informed. but you would not know.
Good try eric - you read the sensor is Sony on some photo blog that doesn't really have a clue - they still quote the Sony CEO as saying he's supplying sensors to Apple.
Compare the ramblings on that blog to actual analyst comments made today:
Wedge Partners believes OmniVision is primary supplier for iPhone 4S sensor
Wedge Partners continues to believe OmniVision (OVTI) is the primary supplier for the iPhone 4S 8 megapixal sensor due to spec sheet comparison and Apple (AAPL) commentary.
OmniVision 8830 most likely in iPhone 4S, says Oppenheimer
After reviewing the specs of the camera in Apple's (AAPL) iPhone 4S, Oppenheimer believes that OmniVision's sensor is most likely in the device, or that OmniVision at least has a good share of the business. The firm maintains an Outperform rating on OmniVision.
try i got it from the sne ceo. how bout that? how bout i know all the specs and used process of elimination. ovt's 8812 and 20 are too low of sensitivity and the 8830 hasn't ramped yet due to poor yield. do you think they'd ramp if yield was still a concern? did you read of a 73% increase in sensitivity? do the math.
erickarr starts again, ...
well how about us poor peole who bought at 13, 14, 15, 16. Please do not feel bad for us.

Eugenio Martín
|Eugenio Martín
Ceuta, Spain
|Film director, Screenwriter
|Notable work
|Bad Man's River, Horror Express, The Bounty Killer
Eugenio Martín is a Spanish film director and screenwriter. He was born in May 15, 1925 in Ceuta, an autonomous city of Spain located on the north coast of Africa. He is best known for the low-budget genre films he made in the 1960s and 1970s, including Bad Man's River, The Bounty Killer, and Horror Express, the latter being particularly notable for its inclusion of the well-known English actors Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing, famous for their work with Hammer Films. Though never remarkably successful either at the box office or among critics, Martín's films, particularly Horror Express, have achieved cult status.[1] The popular horror film magazine Fangoria included Horror Express in its book, 101 Best Horror Movies You've Never Seen: A Celebration of the World's Most Unheralded Fright Flicks.
Early Life and First Films[edit]
Martín was a child when the Spanish Civil War broke out. Since the uprising first broke out among Nationalist generals in Spanish Africa,[2] the African port city of Ceuta was immediately embroiled in violence. Following the death or arrest of friends and family members, Martín's family fled to Grenada on the Spanish mainland.
After publishing a volume of verse, Martín's interests veered toward cinema, and while still at university he created Grenada's first film society. Though he considered leaving Francoist Spain for a less censorious environment, he eventually decided to stay in Spain, accepted into the "Institute of Cinematic Investigation and Experiences" in Madrid. At the Institute, Martín made a series of well-regarded short films and documentaries before making his first feature film Despedida de soltero ("Farewell to the Single Life"), in 1957.[3]
International Collaborations and Commercial Success[edit]
When European film crews began frequently using Spain as an affordable site for location shooting, Martín took advantage of opportunities for collaboration and worked with a number of foreign directors, most notably Nicholas Ray. He had the opportunity to direct films using international casts and crew which familiarized him with many different players in 1960s cinema, by many accounts among the most fertile and creative periods in film history.[4][5]
In 1966 Martín directed The Bounty Killer (released as The Ugly Ones in the United States), the first of many Westerns he was to create. It remains among his better known works; dialogue from the film was sampled in the RZA track, "Ode to Django," which appeared in the credits of the 2012 Quentin Tarentino film Django Unchained.[6] The director maintained that the concept behind his film antedated and influenced the Sergio Leone film For a Few Dollars More, worked on by Duccio Tessari - a mutual acquaintance of Martín and his friend and former teacher José G. Maesso.[3]
Martín made several musicals and giallo-type films in the following years, solidifying his reputation as "an auteur in every genre", per the subtitle of a recent biography. The director's filmography and competence in English led American producer Philip Yordan to contract him for three films, which remain among his better-known works: Bad Man's River, Pancho Villa, and Horror Express.[3] These films have decidedly uneven critical reputations, but the latter especially remains a favorite among fans of its lead actors, Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing.[7]
Martín's international profile dropped significantly after his 1973 film, A Candle for the Devil, released in North America as It Happened at Nightmare Inn. After this release, most of his work was in Spanish-language television.
Selected Filmography[edit]
- Death at the Deep End of the Pool (1972) giallo
- Horror Express (1972) starring Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee, Telly Savalas
- A Candle for the Devil (1973) aka It Happened at Nightmare Inn
- Supernatural (1983) aka Return of the Poltergeist

While gathering the necessary components of a quality search engine optimization (SEO) campaign may seem easy, the truth is that their implementation in a way that allows them to work together can be quite difficult. Anyone that is serious about achieving long-term results, rather than a quick jump in search engine rank, needs to pay attention to four key areas.
Killer Content
You would be amazed at how many website owners embark on an SEO campaign with poor website content. There's nothing more detrimental to your campaign, or your business, then having content that is full of grammatical errors and inaccuracies. While keyword-stuffed content may boost your website to the top of the search engine results pages (SERPs), don't plan on maintaining your place in the long run.
Landing Page Keywords
If you are looking to climb the ladder within the SERPs, you need to be sure that your targeted keywords can actually be found on your landing page. Although that may seem like an obvious statement, it happens time and again. Often, the issue is not discovered until three months into the failed campaign. Check this issue early to ensure ongoing success.
Sophisticated Link Strategies
Links and keywords are good, but instead of inserting a link for informational value, try and create conversations between sites. Don't be afraid to reference other articles, link to them, and talk about them. This type of strategy can go a long way toward garnering tweets and +1′s that could boost the visibility and buzz surrounding both blogs.
Social Responsibility
Because of the social media buzz, many website owners have jumped on the bandwagon without a clear understanding of social media's the real power. Social media can be very effective in your campaign, but you should avoid irrelevant tweets. Social media will not help a poor content, but when you offer up a great piece of content that is tweet-worthy, you will definitely see results.
LinkedIn is an excellent resource for business website owners looking to promote their business. In order to get the most out of your LinkedIn profile, you need to attract significant search engine traffic. Here are some ways to do exactly that.
Use Vanity URLS
When you first create your LinkedIn profile, the website automatically generates a numeric profile name, which is useless when it comes to search engine optimization (SEO). Instead, the website offers the option of creating a "vanity URL," which is basically a replacement name of your choosing, for that numeric string. Be sure to choose your company or product name which will be more search engine friendly and more user-friendly as well.
Use Keywords
After you have written a great profile introduction and promoted yourself effectively, you now need to ensure that the search engines crawl your profile and make it available in relevant search results. To do so, you need to include your targeted keywords in your profile. Be sure to do so in a natural way so that the major search engines can better determine who you are and what you are about, but without turning off readers.
Use DoFollow URLs
LinkedIn is one of the few social networking websites that allows users to include "DoFollow" links in their profile. A DoFollow link counts in search engine algorithms and can point users to whatever sites you choose. LinkedIn actually allows users to insert up to three DoFollow links that can point to your website, blog or Facebook page.
Use Great Content
The major search engines put a lot of value in content that's shared through LinkedIn, so adding new content regularly is a must. Just be sure that the news and information you share is related to your job or your industry.
Always Analyze
Be sure to track the traffic and the keywords used to find your LinkedIn profile. LinkedIn offers a Profile Stats Pro package to paid users. If you're serious about your LinkedIn profile, it is certainly worth the investment.
By following these simple steps, you can make a dramatic difference in how your LinkedIn profile ranks within the major search engines.
These days, Google uses countless numbers of factors to determine exactly where your website sits in its popular search engine. PowerPoint presentations, PDFs, photographs, news stories, blogs, videos, and other online content are now shown in Google's search results, making it the most universal search engine out there. That's why, if your business uses video content online, you need to make sure that the video content is optimized for the search engines.
Create a YouTube Page
The biggest boost you can give your video content is putting it on YouTube. YouTube videos rank particularly well in Google because Google owns the video sharing website. Although there are many video sharing sites, YouTube is by far the most popular. To make your company's YouTube page stand out, go to your account settings and customize the page to match your company branding.
Optimize Your Video
Putting your videos on YouTube is just the first step. The real goal is to optimize your video content for the major search engines as well as for internal searches conducted within YouTube.
The following tips can help your video get seen across the board:

Mountain bike stems are generally a lot shorter and flatter than stems you find on other types of bicycle. Stems vary in a few factors but the two critical ones are length and rise. Stem length is crucial on a mountain bike. Too long and you'' find descending gets scary. Too short and your ride position can feel cramped, if your top tube is also short anyway. For modern mountain bikes a stem length of between 50 and 80mm is standard. Rise angles don't vary hugely. The vast majority of stems are made from aluminium although there are some high end carbon fibre stems appearing now. We stock stems from Easton, Hope, race Face, Thomson and Truvativ.

The toll of a year in space, running a marathon on the ISS, skip-diving at CERN and more
By Tushna Commissariat and Michael Banks
"A year here is a really really long time," says astronaut Scott Kelly in an interview (watch the video above) that he did on board the International Space Station (ISS) just a month before he returned to Earth in March this year. The retired astronaut is talking about the very real effects of spending a long period in space, specifically citing both the physical effects as well as the "psychological stress" involved. "During my time in orbit, I lost bone mass, my muscles atrophied and my blood redistributed itself in my body, which strained my heart. Every day I was exposed to 10 times the radiation of a person on Earth, which will increase my risk of developing a fatal cancer for the rest of my life. Not to mention the psychological stress, which is harder to quantify and is perhaps as damaging," he says.
The comments were part of the announcement of his upcoming memoir, Endurance: My Year in Space and Our Journey to Mars, which will be published later this year. Despite the damming tone, Kelly is still a staunch supporter of manned spaceflight and missions such as those to Mars, he just has a much clearer view on the realities involved. Read more about his announcement over at the GeekWire website.
Physics for all: the March 2016 issue of Physics World is now out
By Matin Durrani
Welcome to the March 2016 issue of Physics World magazine, which is ready and waiting for you to access via our app for mobile and desktop.
The new issue looks at ways to make physics a more inclusive discipline, including spotting your unconscious bias, tuning in to talent and tackling "microaggressions" – small acts of injustice that make people uncomfortable because of who they are, not what they do.
We also look at what life's like for gender and/or sexual minorities at CERN – one of the most international physics labs on the planet – and explore how to find an employer who understands the value of a diverse workforce. There are plenty of practical tips for how you can make a difference.
Black-hole Sun, ticking clocks, coffee-stain avalanches and more
By Michael Banks and Tushna Commissariat
It's that time of the year again when the Royal Observatory Greenwich announces the winners of its Astronomy Photographer of the Year award and releases some of the most wonderful and awe-inspiring celestial images. Pictured above is this year's overall winning image – titled "Eclipse Totality over Sassendalen" and taken by French photographer Luc Jamet, this stunning skyscape was taken from Svalbard during the total solar eclipse that took place earlier this year. "It is one of those heart-stoppingly beautiful shots for which you feel grateful to the photographer for sharing such an exceptional moment," says Melanie Vandenbrouck, who was one of the judges. If you are in London, then you can drop in to the observatory to see the full exhibition , which opens today, and you can see all the winning images online.
While you're admiring pictures, do take a look at the latest images of Pluto – backlit by the Sun and showing off its many rugged mountains and icy planes – taken by the New Horizons probe. The pictures are eerily similar to something you would see at the poles of our very own planet, while still maintaining its alien air.
Queer in STEM, an astronomy rumpus and the heat from a fan
By Matin Durrani
Our eyes were drawn this week to the results of the first national US survey of the experiences of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or asexual (LGBTQA) people working in science, technology, engineering and medicine (STEM) subjects. Entitled Queer in STEM, the study was carried out by Jeremy Yoder, a plant-biology postdoc at the University of Minnesota, and Alison Mattheis who's on the faculty at the College of Education at California State University Los Angeles.
Choosing physics, or not
By Margaret Harris
I've been mulling over this topic for a while, but a pair of blog posts this week has finally prompted me to write about it. One of them, entitled "Why I won't be studying physics at A-level" appeared yesterday in the education section of the Guardian newspaper. In it, the anonymous female author lists a number of reasons why she is leaving physics, including a lack of female teachers and an "uninspiring" GCSE physics syllabus that "seemed out of touch compared with the stem cells and glucoregulation we were studying in biology". There's plenty to debate there already, but to me, the following paragraph was the most striking:
"I don't dislike physics; neither do I find it boring or particularly difficult. But I do enjoy my other subjects more, so when it came to choosing between physics and geography for my fourth AS-level I opted for the latter. I thought it would be good to take a humanities subject to balance out the sciences."
The cure is success
By Margaret Harris
Last Sunday I went up to Cheltenham for the final day of the town's annual Science Festival. My plan was to meet the University of Maryland theorist Jim Gates before lunch and then stay to hear his lecture on science and policy.
I was already somewhat familiar with Gates' research thanks to a feature he wrote for Physics World in June 2010. I could also have made an educated guess about his activities as a member of the President's Council of Advisers on Science and Technology (PCAST). However, I knew very little about his personal history before his evening lecture, when he was interviewed by the physicist and science presenter Jim Al-Khalili.
Gates was born in 1950 and grew up during a period when African-Americans faced severe institutionalized discrimination across the US. However, being from a military family helped insulate him from some of the worst effects, and he told the audience that he didn't feel the full impact until his family moved to Florida after he turned 11. For the first time, he attended a racially segregated school, and there, he said, he had "the very curious experience of having to learn how to be black".
British scientists from ethnic minority backgrounds share their life stories
By James Dacey
What does it mean to be a scientist from an ethnic minority background? Is it harder to get career breaks and to reach the top of a field? Can your background actually be a source of inspiration? Is it even useful to anyone to be discussing these questions?
These are among the issues touched upon in a new series of video interviews with 10 British scientists with minority ethnic heritage. The interviews were conducted by researchers at the British Library as part of a larger audio history project commissioned by the Royal Society called Inspiring Scientists: Diversity in British Science. You can watch all 10 interviews on the Royal Society website.
Scientists face discrimination when choosing a PhD
By Hamish Johnston
One of the most important decisions any aspiring scientist must make is what they should study for their PhD. Therefore, any advice that they receive from established academic researchers is of great value – and many academics are very generous with their time when it comes to mentoring up-and-coming researchers.
But do academics tend to reach out to some groups of people while ignoring others? That's the subject of a study by three business-school professors – Katherine Milkman, Modupe Akinola and Dolly Chugh – who wanted to know if a person's gender or ethnic origin affects their chances of booking an appointment with an academic to discuss their future.
BICEP2 surprise visit, a bizarre rant, credible science fiction and more
By Hamish Johnston
The big story this week is that astronomers working on the BICEP2 telescope may have spotted the first direct evidence for cosmic inflation. This is very good news for the physicist Andrei Linde, who along with Alan Guth and others did much of the early work on inflation. In the above YouTube video Linde, who is certainly in the running for a Nobel prize, receives a surprise visit from BICEP2 team member Chao-Lin Kuo. Kuo is the first to tell Linde and his wife, the physicist Renata Kallosh, the news that the theory that Linde developed more than 30 years earlier had finally been backed up by direct observational evidence. Not surprisingly, champagne glasses are clinking!
Here at physicsworld.com we have tried to tell both sides of the story: the thrill of seeing the first hints of cosmic inflation, tempered with calls for caution that more data are needed before inflation is victorious over other theories describing the early universe.
Welcome to the arXiv galaxy
By Matthew Chalmers
With almost a million articles accrued over the past two decades, the arXiv preprint server has become an indispensable tool for physicists.
Now, thanks to a website called Paperscape developed by theoretical physicists Damien George at the University of Cambridge in the UK and Rob Knegjens at Nikhef in the Netherlands, its vast content can be visualized in all its glory.
The interactive graphic is based on a nifty algorithm that groups arXiv papers that cite each other together, as if they were linked by invisible springs, but forces those that don't to repel each other. The resulting map resembles an irregularly shaped galaxy in which each "star" is a scientific paper, revealing how the various categories of research (shown in different colours) relate to each other.
